Westminster Sermons with a Preface Exploring Victorian Morality and Social Justice Through Sermons【電子書籍】[ Charles Kingsley ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Westminster Sermons with a Preface," Charles Kingsley presents a profound collection of sermons that reflect his deeply held convictions and theological insights. Set against the backdrop of the Victorian era, a time of great religious and social upheaval, Kingsley employs a vigorous, accessible style that blends scriptural exegesis with impassioned social critique. Each sermon addresses moral and ethical dilemmas, offering spiritual guidance rooted in the Christian faith while simultaneously engaging with contemporary issues such as industrialization and social justice, thus situating the text within the larger religious discourse of his time. Charles Kingsley (1819-1875) was a noted clergyman, poet, and historian, whose life experiences as a champion of the working class and advocate for social reform profoundly shaped his theological perspectives. He was a key figure in the Christian Socialist movement, influenced by his commitment to both social justice and spiritual integrity. Kingsley'??s background, enriched by a rich tapestry of literary and ecclesiastical influences, prompted his desire to communicate the principles of Christianity in a way that resonated with the struggles of everyday people. "Westminster Sermons with a Preface" is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the intersection of faith and social responsibility. Kingsley's eloquent prose and passionate convictions provide a compelling invitation to engage with the challenges of modern life through a moral and spiritual lens, making this collection a timeless resource for both scholars and lay readers alike.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Politics, Culture, and Class in the French Revolution Twentieth Anniversary Edition, With a New Preface【電子書籍】[ Lynn Hunt ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>When this book was published in 1984, it reframed the debate on the French Revolution, shifting the discussion from the Revolution's role in wider, extrinsic processes (such as modernization, capitalist development, and the rise of twentieth-century totalitarian regimes) to its central political significance: the discovery of the potential of political action to consciously transform society by molding character, culture, and social relations. In a new preface to this twentieth-anniversary edition, Hunt reconsiders her work in the light of the past twenty years' scholarship.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Scare Tactics Supernatural Fiction by American Women, With a new Preface【電子書籍】[ Jeffrey Andrew Weinstock ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Scare Tactics identifies an important but overlooked tradition of supernatural writing by American women. Jeffrey Weinstock analyzes this tradition as an essentially feminist attempt to imagine alternatives to a world of limited possibilities. In the process, he recovers the lives and works of authors who were important during their lifetimes and in the development of the American literary tradition, but who are not recognized today for their contributions.</p> <p>Between the end of the Civil War and roughly 1930, hundreds of uncanny tales were published by women in the periodical press and in books. These include stories by familiar figures such as Edith Wharton, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Charlotte Perkins Gilman, as well as by authors almost wholly unknown to twenty-first-century readers, such as Josephine Dodge Bacon, Alice Brown, Emma Frances Dawson, and Harriet Prescott Spofford. Focusing on this tradition of female writing offers a corrective to the prevailing belief within American literary scholarship that the uncanny tale, exemplified by the literary productions of Irving, Poe, and Hawthorne, was displaced after the Civil War by literary realism.</p> <p>Beyond the simple existence of an unacknowledged tradition of uncanny literature by women, Scare Tactics makes a strong case that this body of literature should be read as a specifically feminist literary tradition. Especially intriguing, Weinstock demonstrates, is that women authors repeatedly used Gothic conventions to express discontentment with circumscribed roles for women creating types of political intervention connected to the broader sphere of women's rights activism.</p> <p>Paying attention to these overlooked authors helps us better understand not only the literary marketplace of their time, but also more familiar American Gothicists from Edgar Allan Poe to Shirley Jackson to Stephen King.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Road from Mont P?lerin The Making of the Neoliberal Thought Collective, With a New Preface【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Although modern neoliberalism was born at the “Colloque Walter Lippmann” in 1938, it only came into its own with the founding of the Mont P?lerin Society, a partisan “thought collective,” in Vevey, Switzerland, in 1947. Its original membership was made up of transnational economists and intellectuals, including Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, George Stigler, Karl Popper, Michael Polanyi, and Luigi Einaudi. From this small beginning, their ideas spread throughout the world, fostering, among other things, the political platforms of Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan and the Washington Consensus.</p> <p><em>The Road from Mont P?lerin</em> presents the key debates and conflicts that occurred among neoliberal scholars and their political and corporate allies regarding trade unions, development economics, antitrust policies, and the influence of philanthropy. The book captures the depth and complexity of the neoliberal “thought collective” while examining the numerous ways that neoliberal discourse has come to shape the global economy.</p> <p>“<em>The Road from Mont P?lerin</em> is indispensable for anyone wishing to gain an understanding of neoliberalism, whether as an end in itself or as a means for constructing alternative, non-neoliberal futures.”<br /> ーDaniel Kinderman, <em>Critical Policy Studies</em></p> <p>“If you work on post-war history of economics, there is almost no reason not to read this book.”<br /> ーRoss B. Emmett, <em>Journal of the History of Economic Thought</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>In "On the Prospects of Christianity," George Bernard Shaw presents a provocative analysis of Christianity through his characteristic wit and incisive critique. This work explores the moral and ethical implications of Christian doctrine, questioning its relevance in the modern world. Shaw's literary style is infused with a blend of theatricality and philosophical inquiry, reminiscent of his plays, which gives the text a dynamic quality that engages readers in a dialogue about faith, morality, and social justice. Shaw's unique position as a playwright and social critic of the late 19th and early 20th centuries offers a compelling backdrop to his arguments, which delve into the intersection of religion and human progress within the context of contemporary societal challenges. George Bernard Shaw, a prominent figure in the intellectual landscape of his time, was deeply influenced by the social reforms and philosophical movements surrounding him, including socialism and the desire for gender equality. His youthful discontent with traditional institutions and his commitment to examining societal norms provided the impetus for this critical work. Shaw's stature as a public intellectual and his commitment to challenging the status quo manifest in this exploration of Christianity's future. This book is highly recommended for readers who seek to understand the intersection of faith and reason. Shaw'??s controversial yet insightful perspectives will resonate with those interested in theological discourse, providing a refreshing critique of Christian ideology that remains relevant today.

The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana Translated From the Sanscrit in Seven Parts With Preface, Introduction and Concluding Remarks【電子書籍】[ Vatsyayana ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana is an ancient Indian text that transcends mere sexual instruction, delving into the holistic nature of love, relationships, and the art of living. Composed in the 3rd century CE, Vatsyayana's work intricately weaves philosophy, psychology, and social norms into a discourse on desire and the pursuit of pleasure, reflecting the complexities of human experience. Its literary style is characterized by elegant prose and poetic verse, enriched by metaphor and allegory, situating the text within a rich tradition of Sanskrit literature. The Kama Sutra serves as a crucial cultural artifact, illuminating the relational dynamics of its time and offering insight into the moral frameworks that governed human connections in ancient India. Vatsyayana, a philosopher and scholar, draws from an extensive array of sources, including various schools of thought on love and duty, which likely influenced his approach to the subject. His work is both a culmination of earlier erotological texts and a critical reflection on the societal values of his era. Living in a context where pleasure was considered a legitimate pursuit alongside duty (dharma) and material success (artha), Vatsyayana's perspective integrates spiritual wisdom with pragmatic guidance, illustrating the significance of desire in human life. Readers seeking a profound understanding of the interplay between pleasure, love, and societal responsibilities will find The Kama Sutra an enlightening and enriching text. It is not merely a manual on sexual experience but a philosophical treatise that invites reflection on personal relationships, ethical living, and the nature of happiness. This edition serves both scholars and general readers alike, offering timeless insights that continue to resonate in contemporary discussions of intimacy and human connection.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Preface to a Dictionary of the English Language Seminal insights on English language's evolution and usage【電子書籍】[ Samuel Johnson ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In the "Preface to a Dictionary of the English Language," Samuel Johnson presents not only a comprehensive guide to the English language but also a profound exploration of its intricacies and nuances. Written in a period marked by linguistic evolution, Johnson's preface employs an eloquent style that marries clarity with intellectual rigor, offering insights into the moral and philosophical dimensions of language. This seminal work lays the groundwork for lexicography, addressing the necessity of a standardized language while highlighting the dynamism inherent in words, their meanings, and their usage over time. Samuel Johnson (1709-1784), an influential writer and lexicographer of the 18th century, was motivated by a keen interest in etymology and societal standards. His experiences as a poet, essayist, and wit shaped his understanding of language's role in culture and communication. Throughout his life, he faced personal adversities, including bouts of ill health, which further influenced his reflective approach to literature and the power of words. The "Preface to a Dictionary of the English Language" is not merely a prelude to a lexical reference; it invites readers to contemplate the beauty and complexity of their own linguistic heritage. For anyone seeking to understand the evolution of English or the philosophical underpinnings of lexicography, this work stands as a crucial reference point.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Preface to Shakespeare A Comprehensive Guide to Shakespearean Criticism and Literary Analysis by an 18th-century Scholar【電子書籍】[ Samuel Johnson ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In his seminal work, "Preface to Shakespeare," Samuel Johnson offers a profound exploration of Shakespeare'??s plays, melding literary criticism with a rich historical context. Johnson's eloquent prose reflects the 18th-century Enlightenment ideals, emphasizing reason and human experience while simultaneously celebrating the complexities of Shakespeare'??s characters and themes. He deftly navigates the interplay between the moral implications of Shakespeare'??s narratives and the artistic liberties the playwright employs, marking a pivotal moment in literary criticism that combines aesthetics with analytical rigor. Johnson's work not only provides insights into the intricacies of Shakespeare's writing but also addresses the broader cultural and philosophical inquiries of his time. Samuel Johnson, a towering figure of English literature, was profoundly influenced by the literary culture of his era and his own experiences of hardship and intellectual pursuit. His extensive background in poetry, literature, and lexicography culminated in a distinctive approach to criticism that sought both to elevate literature's status and to wrestle with the ethical dimensions of artistic expression. The preface serves as both homage to Shakespeare and a reflection of Johnson's own contemplative engagement with morality and humanity. "Preface to Shakespeare" is an essential read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Shakespeare's plays and their enduring impact on literature. Johnson's perceptive analyses are invaluable not only for scholars and students but also for any lover of literature hoping to grasp the intricacies of human emotion and moral complexity within Shakespeare's work.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

On the Prospects of Christianity Bernard Shaw's Preface to Androcles and the Lion【電子書籍】[ Bernard Shaw ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "On the Prospects of Christianity," George Bernard Shaw embarks on a critical exploration of Christian doctrine through the lens of early 20th-century thought, combining wit and incisive commentary with his signature dramatic flair. This provocative treatise questions the established norms of faith and morality, offering a fresh perspective on the societal implications of Christianity. Written during a time when traditional beliefs were increasingly challenged by modernity, Shaw's work reflects a literary style that is both polemical and engaging, blending philosophical inquiry with sharp satire in a dialectical form that fosters intellectual debate rather than dogmatic adherence. As an influential playwright and social critic, Shaw's views on religion were deeply rooted in his experiences with the dogmas of his youth and his commitment to exposing the flaws of societal conventions. His background in the Fabian Societyーa socialist organization dedicated to reforming society through gradual change rather than revolutionーimpacted his critique of religious institutions, positioning him as a thinker ahead of his time, intent on addressing the ethical demands of his age. "On the Prospects of Christianity" is a must-read for anyone intrigued by the interplay between faith and reason. Shaw's bold assertions and engaging prose invite readers to reflect on the relevance of religious beliefs in contemporary society, making it a vital text for scholars, theologians, and thoughtful laypersons alike.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Redefining Global Strategy, with a New Preface Crossing Borders in a World Where Differences Still Matter【電子書籍】[ Pankaj Ghemawat ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>New Tools for Succeeding Globally</strong></p> <p>Why do so many global strategies fail--despite companies' powerful brands and other border-crossing advantages? Because a one-size-fits-all strategy no longer stands a chance.</p> <p>When firms believe in the illusions of a "flat" world and the death of distance, they charge across borders as if the globe were one seamless marketplace. But cross-border differences are larger than we assume. Most economic activity--including trade, real and financial investment, tourism, and communication--happens locally, not internationally. In this "semiglobalized" approach, companies can cross borders more profitably by basing their strategies on the geopolitical differences that matter; they must identify the barriers their strategies will have to overcome, and they must build bridges to cross those barriers. Based on rigorous research, Pankaj Ghemawat shows how to create successful strategies and provides practical management tools so you can:</p> <ul> <li>Assess the cultural, administrative, geographic, and economic differences between regions at the industry level--and decide which ones require attention</li> <li>Track the implications of the specific border-crossing actions that will impact your company's ability to create value the most</li> <li>Generate superior performance through strategies that are optimized for the three A's: adaptation (adjusting to differences), aggregation (overcoming differences), and arbitrage (exploiting differences)</li> </ul> <p>Using in-depth examples, Ghemawat reveals how companies such as Cemex, Toyota, Procter & Gamble, Tata Consultancy Services, IBM, and GE Healthcare are adroitly managing cross-border differences. He also shares examples of other well-known companies that have failed at this challenge. Crucial for any business competing across borders, <em>Redefining Global Strategy</em> will help you make the most of our semiglobalized world.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

White Working Class, With a New Foreword by Mark Cuban and a New Preface by the Author Overcoming Class Cluelessness in America【電子書籍】[ Joan C. Williams ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>"It is really worth a read…" -- Former Vice President Joe Biden, interviewed on <em>Pod Save America</em></strong></p> <p>Now in paperback with a new Foreword by Mark Cuban and a new Preface by the author, <em>White Working Class</em> explains why so much of the elite's analysis of the white working class is misguided, rooted in class cluelessness.</p> <p>Joan C. Williams, described as having "something approaching rock star status" by the <em>New York Times</em>, explains that many people have conflated "working class" with "poor"--but the working class is, in fact, the elusive, purportedly disappearing middle class. They often resent the poor and the professionals alike. But they don't resent the truly rich, nor are they particularly bothered by income inequality. Their dream is not to join the upper middle class, with its different culture, but to stay true to their own values in their own communities--just with more money. While white working-class motivations are often dismissed as racist or xenophobic, Williams shows that they have their own class consciousness.</p> <p><em>White Working Class</em> is a blunt, bracing narrative that sketches a nuanced portrait of millions of people who have proven to be a potent political force. For anyone stunned by the rise of populist, nationalist movements, wondering why so many would seemingly vote against their own economic interests, or simply feeling like a stranger in their own country, <em>White Working Class</em> will be a convincing primer on how to connect with a crucial set of workers--and voters.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

A Book of Prefaces【電子書籍】[ H. L. Mencken ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>A Book of Prefaces is H. L. Mencken's criticism of American society, culture, and movements. Menken considered this book as the most important in his career, and it was pretty controversial. The publishers first doubted about printing it, as they were afraid of the negative public acclaim. The book contains four critical essays, three of which are dedicated to specific writers like Theodor Dreiser, Joseph Conrad, James Huneker. Mencken had criticized Puritanism for many years, famously characterizing it as "the haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy," but through World War I his criticism became increasingly outspoken, in part due to the rising tide of Prohibition.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Silicon Second Nature Culturing Artificial Life in a Digital World, Updated With a New Preface【電子書籍】[ Stefan Helmreich ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><em>Silicon Second Nature</em> takes us on an expedition into an extraordinary world where nature is made of bits and bytes and life is born from sequences of zeroes and ones. Artificial Life is the brainchild of scientists who view self-replicating computer programsーsuch as computer virusesーas new forms of life. Anthropologist Stefan Helmreich's look at the social and simulated worlds of Artificial Lifeーprimarily at the Santa Fe Institute, a well-known center for studies in the sciences of complexityーintroduces readers to the people and programs connected with this unusual hybrid of computer science and biology.</p> <p>When biology becomes an information science, when DNA is downloaded into virtual reality, new ways of imagining "life" become possible. Through detailed dissections of the artifacts of Artifical Life, Helmreich explores how these novel visions of life are recombining with the most traditional tales told by Western culture. Because Artificial Life scientists tend to see themselves as masculine gods of their cyberspace creations, as digital Darwins exploring frontiers filled with primitive creatures, their programs reflect prevalent representations of gender, kinship, and race, and repeat origin stories most familiar from mythical and religious narratives.</p> <p>But Artificial Life does not, Helmreich says, simply reproduce old stories in new software. Much like contemporary activities of cloning, cryonics, and transgenics, the practice of simulating and synthesizing life <em>in silico</em> challenges and multiplies the very definition of vitality. Are these models, as some would claim, actually another form of the real thing? <em>Silicon Second Nature</em> takes Artifical Life as a symptom and source of our mutating visions of life itself.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Preface to Major Barbara【電子書籍】[ George Bernard Shaw ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In many of his plays, Shaw writes a preface for the reader which, in some cases, has very little to do with the play itself, but, in some cases, as with Major Barbara, it comments directly on the ideas found in the play. And as with this play, the prefaces are often rather lengthy and are divided into sections.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Jane Eyre: By Charlotte Bront? (With PREFACE ) (Cronos Classics)【電子書籍】[ Charlotte Bront? ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This version of the book has an "hyperlinked" table of contents Jane Eyre, the story of a young girl and her passage into adulthood, was an immediate commercial success at the time of its original publication in 1847. Its representation of the underside of domestic life and the hypocrisy behind religious enthusiasm drew both praise and bitter criticism, while Charlotte Bront?'s striking expose of poor living conditions for children in charity schools as well as her poignant portrayal of the limitations faced by women who worked as governesses sparked great controversy and social debate. Jane Eyre, Bront?'s best-known novel, remains an extraordinary coming-of-age narrative, and one of the great classics of literature.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Preface to the philosophy of education (International Library of the Philosophy of Education Volume 24)【電子書籍】[ John Wilson ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>It is sometimes said that the philosophy of education is not a serious and coherent philosophical area of inquiry. John Wilson examines this argument, taking it as the starting point for his book. He believes that most 'philosophy of education' until now has been little more than the promotion of particular ideologies, and that progress can be made only by a more analytical approach. The central problems lies in establishing a few basic concepts, principles and categories and questions which will form the skeleton of the subject. He therefore outlines the nature of 'philosophy of education' and defines some of its major problems by examining key notions such as the value of education, the nature and implications of learning and what should be learned.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Poetics (Translated by Ingram Bywater with a Preface by Gilbert Murray)【電子書籍】[ Aristotle ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Greek philosopher and scientist, Aristotle, lived in the 4th century B.C. and is thought of as one of the most important figures from classical antiquity. Aristotle was probably the most famous member of Plato’s Academy in Athens, whose writings would ultimately form the first comprehensive system of Western philosophy. His writings were not constrained to simply one field of inquiry but covered such various subjects as physics, biology, metaphysics, logic, ethics, aesthetics, rhetoric, linguistics, politics and government. Contained in this volume is Aristotle’s “Poetics” which is regarded as the world’s first comprehensive treatise on literature. It is a detailed analysis of drama and poetry with its greatest emphasis on tragedy. Aristotle outlines the elements of good drama drawing upon specific examples from the literature of ancient Greece. Lost for a time to the Western world, “Poetics” was rediscovered in the late medieval and early renaissance period from Arabic sources. An essential read for any student of classical literature, Aristotle’s “Poetics” provides great insight into the study of drama from the classical period. This edition is translated by Ingram Bywater, includes a preface by Gilbert Murray, and a biographical afterword.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Anatomy of Racial Inequality With a New Preface【電子書籍】[ Glenn C. Loury ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>“Lifts and transforms the discourse on ‘race’ and racial justice to an entirely new level.”<br /> ーOrlando Patterson</strong></p> <p><strong>“Intellectually rigorous and deeply thoughtful…An incisive, erudite book by a major thinker.”<br /> ーGerald Early, <em>New York Times Book Review</em></strong></p> <p>Why are black Americans so persistently confined to the margins of society? And why do they fail across so many metricsーwages, unemployment, income levels, test scores, incarceration rates, health outcomes? Known for his influential work on the economics of racial inequality and for pioneering the link between racism and social capital, Glenn Loury is not afraid of piercing orthodoxies and coming to controversial conclusions. In this now classic work, reconsidered in light of recent events, he describes how a vicious cycle of tainted social information helped create the racial stereotypes that rationalize and sustain discrimination, and suggests how this might be changed.</p> <p>Brilliant in its account of how racial classifications are created and perpetuated, and how they resonate through the social, psychological, spiritual, and economic life of the nation, this compelling and passionate book gives us a new way of seeingーand of seeing beyondーthe damning categorization of race.</p> <p>“Paints in chilling detail the distance between Martin Luther King’s dream and the reality of present-day America.”<br /> ーAnthony Walton, <em>Harper’s</em></p> <p>“Loury provides an original and highly persuasive account of how the American racial hierarchy is sustained and reproduced over time. And he then demands that we begin the deep structural reforms that will be necessary to stop its continued reproduction.”<br /> ーMichael Walzer</p> <p>“He is a genuine maverick thinker…<em>The Anatomy of Racial Inequality</em> both epitomizes and explains Loury’s understanding of the depressed conditions of so much of black society today.”<br /> ー<em>New York Times Magazine</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Imperial San Francisco, With a New Preface Urban Power, Earthly Ruin【電子書籍】[ Gray Brechin ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>First published in 1999, this celebrated history of San Francisco traces the exploitation of both local and distant regions by prominent familiesーthe Hearsts, de Youngs, Spreckelses, and othersーwho gained power through mining, ranching, water and energy, transportation, real estate, weapons, and the mass media. The story uncovered by Gray Brechin is one of greed and ambition on an epic scale. Brechin arrives at a new way of understanding urban history as he traces the connections between environment, economy, and technology and discovers links that led, ultimately, to the creation of the atomic bomb and the nuclear arms race. In a new preface, Brechin considers the vulnerability of cities in the post-9/11 twenty-first century.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>American author and expatriate, Henry James is regarded as one the principal figures of 19th century literary realism. His work, which often features Americans traveling to Europe, is noted for its intimate examination of the consciousness of his characters. In this volume we find two of his most popular works. “The Turn of the Screw” is an intense psychological tale of terror. Beginning in an old house on Christmas Eve, it is the story of a governess who comes to live with and take care of two young children, whose parents have recently died. The governess loves her new position in charge of the young children; however she is soon disturbed when she begins to see ghosts. “The Aspern Papers” is the story of an unnamed narrator who travels to Venice in search of Juliana Bordereau, whom he believes is in possession of some personal letters of the famous and now dead American poet, Jeffrey Aspern. This edition includes a preface by Henry James.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>“Telepathy - Genuine and Fraudulent” is a vintage work on the subject of telepathic transmission by W. W. Baggally. Within it, Baggally looks at obviously fake and potentially real cases of telepathy, explaining how contemporary charlatans fooled their audiences and recounting uncanny instances and cases that could represent actual examples of telepathic communication. This volume will appeal to those with an interest in telepathy and related subjects, and it would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: “Experimental Telepathy”, “Spontaneous Telepathy”, “Telepathy between Human Beings and Animals”, “Fraudulent Telepathy”, “Accounts of Cases”, “Description of Various Methods used by Public Performers for Effecting their So-called Transmission of Thought”, “The Zancigs”, “Public Experiments”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
